Eric's Supercharged Shit-box

True, EFM does have some nice looking products. Haven't heard much about them though since I started reseaching this 3-link.

I think I am going with Barnes 4wd enduro joints for my lowers... the EFM are really expensive!


On another note, finished my grooving. #4 round blade grooved 1/4" deep.

 

i have emf joints for the 3link in my 4runner and they really are a "lifetime" joint based on the testing of their joints that I've seen.

 

Nice grooves! Looks kinda like a km2 but more straight cut. How lond did it take you?

 

So how long does it take you to get to Windrock? I'd love to head that way and wheel with ya sometime. I still need a few parts and a trailer and I'll be good to go.

 

Thanks! It took about 3 hours in a 30-40 degree garage. Not too bad I didn't think.

Honestly, map says 6.5 hours... realisticly... 8 hours due to trailer travel speeds, stopping twice at least...etc. However, I have not made that drive since I got a diesel. Maybe a tad faster now.

 

Let me know if yall plan something, I still need a few parts also lol and a lot of man time lol but my rig will stay wheel able at all times. So pretty much just let me know.

I'm down wether I have to go ifs or sas

 

There might be a windrock run around september... I'm not sure when Mark and I plan to go, or if he even plans to go... he's kinda being a bitch recently

 

Haha I'd love to see his rig in person.

At this point I'm not sure when the sas will happen, all I know is between April and December.

It's just about a 4.5-5 hour trip for me.

 

I'd love a 5 hour drive... Hell, I drove 4 hours to the badlands several times when I didn't live 30 minutes away like I do now.

You don't want to see my rig in person, it's a POS

 

Lol well I'd love to make it out there this year.

 

What kit is that? I've been looking at the barnes4wd kit

 

No kit, just random shit from ballistic. HD frame link brackets with DIY axle upper link bracket and a 22 degree frame upper link bracket. The shock tabs are inner c gusset/CO tabs. And the lower link axle brackets are 10 degree angled brackets.

Do you think something like this is worth it? Or think I could part something together for less?

 

I have always had really good luck with rough stuff, and their stuff is always priced well. If you are planning this for a future build and can wait they do 10-20% off special every once in a while.

 

Yea that is an excellent kit and I would go that route except I don't believe I need heims all the way around. Slightly rougher ride due to the heim. I went with barnes enduro joints for my lowers. Also, I don't need a 1.25" heim for the upper and I am going with a 7/8" heim as I believe that will be plenty strong.

This ^^ 4th of july or mothers day is when they run a 20% (It's either Dan loves blowing shit up, or he loves his mom, can't remember.) Otherwise normal holiday they are usually 10-15%.

 

Hmm my truck will still be a dd so I wonder if i should do heims. I didnt know they produced a rougher ride?

 

Don't be a puss it's a Toyota, not going to ride like a couch.

 

It's not that much difference, but supposedly there is a slightly better ride with the joint style vs heim. Heim is the stongest though, but are you doing ultra 4? Probably not needed! This bitch best ride like a couch with $1500 in fucking shocks fuck that noise!!! CO FTMFW
